Assorted Arrangements: A Night Of Eclectic Artistic Performances

Spontaneous and intimate artistic expressions are revealed through the dynamic possibilities of performance art. “Assorted Arrangements: A Night of Eclectic Artistic Performances,” at Thumbprint Gallery on May 5th, presents three distinct contemporary performances by Jessica Hirst, Dylan Barmmer and Patricia Maldonado.

Barmmer has self-published two Spoken Word albums, and his work has appeared in the pages of The San Diego Poetry Annual, LA Yoga Magazine, Elephant Journal and The Poetry of Yoga.
